The Washington Institute for Near East Policy
"The Iraqi governorates of Dahuk, Irbil, Sulaymaniyah and portions of Kirkuk have been free from Saddam's control since the Kurdish uprising in 1991"

Project For The New American Century (sound familiar?)
"We should help establish and support (with economic, political, and military means) a provisional, representative, and free government of Iraq in areas of Iraq not under Saddam's control"

The Center for Security Policy
"We should recognize an Iraqi government-in-exile. We should give the opposition use of frozen Iraqi assets. We should lift sanctions in those areas of Iraq not under Saddam's control -- 'liberated Iraq'-- such as northern Iraq."
